There wasn't much food left when Sophia arrived at the cafeteria that was on the basement level.She ate a few bites of whatever was left and then dashed back.
A person dressed as she worked in General Administration Office walked over and stopped her as she approached the elevator.
"Mr.Evans has requested for your presence in his office, Ms.Hill?” the person said.
Sophia looked around her and then hesitated, "Are you sure he called for me, and you didn't confuse me for someone else?"
Despite the fact that the General Manager's Office was filled with secretaries, Sophia was certain that she had never seen the person in front of her.
Was she a transfer employee? Furthermore, she had the impression that Patrick was not the type to go out of his way to find his subordinates.
But even if he did, John would be the one to look for them.
"I'm not wrong, and you're the one that's being called.Now, go!" the person told her.
The woman had a very confident appearance.
After completing the task, she turned around and walked in the opposite direction.
Sophia considered whether she had anything else that she wanted to tell her, but she also felt the discomfort between them.She felt that it was inconvenient to talk to her further, so she obliged and went to Patrick's office instead.
Sophia thought that it was better if she met with Patrick as an employee and president of the company in his office rather than in private.
It was the most reasonable thing to do.
The secretary on duty was not present as Sophia took the elevator to the top floor, confirming her suspicions.
It was just that she didn't know what he was going to say.
She thought they had previously stated everything clearly, whether in work or relationship.
The president's office door was half-closed, and it appeared that Patrick was already aware of someone arriving, so he had left it open.
Sophia knocked on the door a few times, waiting for a response, but after a few seconds, there wasn't anything but silence.She stopped knocking and stepped aside.She thought about waiting for the lunch break to be over; after all, it wasn't going to take long.
However, no one was around.The huge office was empty.
Sophia had a frown on her face.
If Patrick had summoned her, he should at the very least wait for her to arrive in his office.
He had to stay there, right? A familiar voice came from inside the half-closed door as she started to turn back and go.
"Patrick, that dish that the French restaurant offer is authentic.You'll have to eat with me there in the future.When Sophia turned around and looked for the voice, she saw that it was Adriana who talked.
An indistinct voice sounded from beside her coming from a man.
Sophia could imagine that he had a smile on his lips that carried a lot of indulgence and patience, even if she didn't hear it very clearly.
